中國將向各國領導人發出邀請,參加其紀念二戰結束70周年的閱兵式,然而這一邀請令歐洲領導人陷入了外交上的兩難境地。
在這場或將在9月3日舉行的閱兵儀式上,中國可能會展示其重型武器。閱兵方陣將走過北京極具象徵意義的天安門廣場。在1989年的天安門屠殺中,坦克也曾從這里駛過。
外交官們對於用自己的國際公信力為這樣一場活動背書十分小心,因為它可能會被解讀為中國炫耀其軍事力量的一次嘗試,而不是紀念二戰死難者的儀式。此外,他們也擔心在中國和日本之間選邊站。對於多數國家來說,中國已成為重要的貿易和投資夥伴。
這一閱兵式將紀念“中國人民抗日戰爭勝利日”。中國時常以這場戰爭來批評日本,並用它反對日本政客參拜有爭議的東京靖國神社。
到目前為止,俄羅斯總統弗拉基米爾•普京(Vladimir Putin)是唯一一位已宣佈接受邀請的外國領導人。
上周,中國外交部發言人洪磊表示:“中俄作為二戰亞洲和歐洲的兩大主戰場,為戰勝法西斯和日本軍國主義,贏得二戰勝利做出了重大貢獻,付出了巨大犧牲。”
日本外務省表示還未收到相關邀請。除了這一表態以外,外務省拒絕置評日本領導人是否會參加這次閱兵式的問題。而在中國方面,洪磊並未指明哪些國家已收到邀請,只是表示閱兵儀式正在籌備之中。
由於俄羅斯對烏克蘭沖突的縱容,多數歐洲領導人已做出決定,不參加5月9日俄羅斯紀念二戰歐洲戰事結束的閱兵式。德國總理安格拉默克爾(Angela Merkel)則計劃在隨後一天,與弗拉基米爾•普京一道,向莫斯科無名烈士墓(Tomb of the Unknown Soldier)敬獻花圈。不過,據洪磊稱,中國國家主席習近平將參加俄羅斯的閱兵式。
目前,許多國家的政府仍未決定如何回應中方邀請。
一名瞭解這次閱兵式的歐洲外交官表示:“(高級別官員)參與該活動將非常勉強,特別是這一活動似乎就是為了讓日本不安。”
這一外交上的兩難境地可能會讓歐洲陷入分化。對於莫斯科計劃中的閱兵式,歐盟(EU)國家就未能達成一致立場。部分國家採取的辦法是:要求接受俄羅斯邀請的軍官在參加閱兵式時,身著便服而不是制服。
英國則已即將大選為由,迴避了這一問題。
中國曾提出在北京西南面的盧溝橋(Marco Polo bridge)舉行紀念儀式的想法,這種想法也會引起日本的反感。在中國內地,1937年發生在盧溝橋的小規模沖突,被視為對日戰爭的起點。
二戰的亞洲戰事結束於1945年8月15日,日本天皇在這一天通過全國廣播宣佈向盟軍投降。正式的投降儀式則於9月2日在位於東京灣的一艘美國戰艦上舉行。中國在隨後一天啟動了抗戰勝利的慶祝活動。9月9日,日本在華武裝向位於南京的中國政府投降。當時,南京是中華民國的首都。

tomb of the unknown soldier 在 Kyle Le Dot Net Youtube 的最佳貼文
First order of business, I wanted to go see Chiang Kai-shek’s Memorial. Walking past the National Theatre, there were people practicing Tai Chi in the morning. What an unforgettable sight that was – to be immersed in such tradition – to finally see the things I always see in the movies in real life. To finally stand before Chiang Kai-shek’s statue himself and in front of the guards themselves made me feel really surreal. I don’t normally feel that way about many places, but I seldom have a connection such as this one.
You see, in university, I studied contemporary China a lot. I focused and paid attention to WWII and the results. Chiang Kai-shek was definitely a prominent figure in my studies. And being there just brought back so many memories of university and how far and long it’s been. I can’t believe it’s been almost four years since I graduated. I felt extremely old standing there.
Next up, I went over to the Sun Yat-sen Memorial as well. It looked a little bit older and less grand compared to the space of the Chiang Kai-shek’s memorial grounds, but this one featured the changing of the guards. This kind of brought me back to my Washington DC trip in middle school when I witnessed the changing of the guards at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. It’s funny how in life, we have moments and memories that remain with us for a long time. Even though those feelings have faded, the memories still hold value from within. Moments on the road and moments traveling have made my life much deeper and refined. Staring at Sun Yat-sen’s statue gave me goosebumps. I was in Taiwan. Zomg.
The weather in Taipei was actually pretty comfortable during this time of the year. Sure, the sun was bright, but the heat was tolerable- especially in the evening. I wasn’t really sure what to eat that afternoon because I was still pretty sick from a case of food poisoning the days prior, I just opted to eat some Subway to be safe- simply because it was there and I was starving. To think about it, food in Taipei wasn’t easy to find as I thought. There were certain areas where you could get food and it wasn’t available in the streets in the afternoon or early in the morning. I had a hard time locating random restaurants near these sights. Even if there was a restaurant, a lot of the menus didn’t have a lick of English or pictures.
Another thing that many people do in Taipei is to visit the Maokong area via the Maokong Gondola or Maokong Cable Cars. The lines were line. I had to stand in the sun for quite a bit until the line progressed. People have a chance to either use a basic cabin or a crystal bottom one where the bottom of the cabin is made out of another sheet of glass so you can look down. That was pretty scary. The ride was beautiful, but I’ve been in so many cable cars that they don’t really impress me anymore. When I reached the top, there wasn’t much to do. There was some street food, including calabash candy, which was another thing I saw on TV in real life. That was pretty awesome, but gave me severe tooth pains because of how sweet it was. Trust me, I’ve never bitten into anything so sweet and sour like calabash tomatoes. Most people were walking towards a temple or something. I didn’t feel like visiting a crowded temple, so I opted to find some food. I stumbled upon a random restaurant. Pointed at some pictures. Nobody spoke English. And ate some really weird cold chicken leg thing. My waitress suddenly started speaking Vietnamese to another person, and I almost fell over. I started laughing insanely loud because we had so much trouble communicating my order. She was speaking Chinese and I was speaking Engrish. In the end, we spoke Vietnamese to each other and laughed at our situation. She married a Taiwanese man over 18 years ago and has been living in Taiwan and working there at her mother-in-law’s restaurant for that many years.
